Humeau’s practice often takes the form of research-based projects to challenge key issues of the day using complex narratives that synthesise the past with the present. Humeau here blurs the boundaries between research and fiction, science and myth. She creates a uniquely sensory experience using bodily substances, polystyrene sculptures and the recreation of Cleopatra’s voice.

It reveals how a Mexican artist forged a new path in the modern art of the Americas and contributed to New York’s dynamic cultural scene as the city was becoming a center of postwar art.
